Touching the Distance: Native American Riddle-Poems

32 pp. January, 1998 | Trade ISBN 0-15-200804-7
(4) K-3 Rendon's illustrations--which cleverly convey both riddle and answer--are the strength of this collection of fourteen riddles in poem form. Unlike Bierhorst's 'Lightning Inside You: And Other Native American Riddles', this volume lacks sufficient information necessary to understand the meaning of the poems and their significance to Native people. An answer key lists the tribes of origin, and sources are included.
